"If this mischievous financial policy, which has its
origin in North America, shall become endurated down to a fixture, then
that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off
debts and be without debt. It will have all the money necessary to
carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous without precedent in
the history of the world. The brains, and wealth of all countries will
go to North America. That country must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe." -- The London Times responding to
Lincoln's Greenback notes
